On October 30, 2013, the 2013-2014 season officially kicked off!
For some teams, this season is gray, such as the Lakers.
Howard, who is regarded as the future hope of the Lakers, left for the Rockets during the offseason. Kobe Bryant retired from the fourth game of last season's playoffs due to injury. After undergoing surgery during the offseason, the Lakers officials made it clear that Kobe will miss most of the season.
Competition, the return date has not yet been determined.
The Lakers can't go far if they stick to the aging Nash and Gasol!
So many Lakers fans have announced that this season is ending early...
The same goes for Thunder.
Westbrook suffered a season-ending injury in the sixth game against the Spurs in the playoffs last season. He will also miss many games this season. The Thunder have to rely on Durant alone to support him most of the time.
Durant's scoring ability is very strong, but his team leadership ability has never been proven.
Being a super scorer does not mean that you are the core of the team system. Being able to score at critical moments does not mean that your opponent will be afraid of you throughout the game!
Monta Ellis's scoring ability is not bad, Mike Beasley also has many scoring methods, and Holly's shooting at critical moments is even more reliable than Durant's, but neither of them can serve as the core of the team, or
Talk about the cornerstone of the team.
Therefore, the prospect of Durant leading the team alone is not optimistic.
It is also for this reason that there is no match between these two teams in the opening game.
Apart from these two teams, for many people, this season is nothing special. It is just another sweep of the Warriors to win the championship. The other teams show their talents and move forward bravely, but they are just fighting for a second place ending.
.
But this was not the case for Deng Fang.
Deng Fang knows that this is the last season in which he can pretend to be X!
Starting next season, many powerful players in the Warriors will leave the team. The Warriors' lineup will also be greatly restricted and they cannot recruit people at will.
The days of relying on a strong lineup to act unscrupulously are numbered!
So Deng Fang cherishes the days in front of him very much!
Not surprisingly, the opening games are all highlights: Nets vs. Pacers, Clippers vs. Spurs, Warriors vs. Heat!
The Pacers reached the Eastern Conference Finals last season, played seven games against the Heat, and ultimately lost. They definitely want to go one step further this season and have a taste of what it's like to face the Warriors in the Finals.
The Nets recruited many big-name players during the offseason. Although Garnett and others are very old, many people are still optimistic about this team. Their winning probability has also been moved to the top three positions by various gambling companies.
Since they are both in the East, no matter what, these two teams are one of each other's strongest opponents.
It can be said that the Pacers are the best touchstone for the Nets!
As for the Clippers and Spurs, this is a confrontation between new forces and old forces. The Clippers' style of play is violent and passionate, while the Spurs are sophisticated and calm. The game between the two teams will definitely be fun to watch.
Needless to say about the last one, the Warriors and the Heat are still the two teams with the greatest likelihood of facing off in the new season's finals. They were swept once again last season, and the Heat are definitely not convinced. After recruiting during the offseason, the Heat definitely want to give it a try.
own strength.
Whether the Warriors are the only one, or whether they are all together, we will definitely get some clues from this game, so this game is also a highly anticipated one.
The Heat attach great importance to this game, and so do the Warriors, but everyone's focus is on one person, and that is Deng Fang!
Why?
Because Deng Fang once again boasted loudly before the game:
"We beat the Heat by at least 50 points in this game! If the point difference is less than 50 points, we lose!"
"Our goal is for Curry to make 13 three-pointers in this game!"
"No matter what others do, James will never score in double figures!"
"This game is James' last opener with the Heat! You must cherish it!"
"Why did James leave the Heat? Because Wade is old and the Heat are no longer competitive enough!"
"Where will James go? To a team with fresh blood, legs to hug, and a lot of chips!"
"No matter where he goes, as long as I'm here, James will never win a championship!"
…
Not surprisingly, all the alliance's attention was attracted by Deng Fang!
What? Beat the Heat by 50 points?
The Heat won't lose so much if they want a little face, right?
Curry breaks record with 13 three-pointers in a single game?
If Deng Fang hadn't said that, it would still be possible. Your big words have been blown out, and people still don't guard against Curry's three-pointer? You really think they are a fool!
Is James really leaving the Heat? Is Deng Fang so sure?
Really worthy of being Zhan Paopao!
Yes, Wade is indeed a bit old, so people don’t like him anymore!
Deng Fang is at odds with James!
This game will definitely be fun to watch!
…
Deng Fang's sharp remarks successfully attracted everyone's attention, but everyone can brag, the most important thing is to get things done successfully!
If you get slapped in the face once, there will still be people who want to see you. If you get slapped in the face too many times, no one will care about you!
Deng Fang had the confidence to dare to do this!
The Warriors' lineup is extremely powerful, allowing Deng Fang to deploy it as he pleases!
The result of the game was just as Deng Fang said. The Warriors won by 55 points and got a good start to the new season at home!
There is no way, the Warriors are too strong!
The Heat were not without resistance. As soon as they came up, they brought the confrontation to the highest intensity and fought hand-to-hand throughout the game.
But in the arena, hard power is what matters after all, and the Warriors are more than one level better than the Heat!
The Warriors' starting five were Curry, Klay, Hayward, Barnes, and Bogut. Draymond Green replaced Bogut after less than 5 minutes.
Although Bogut is much weaker than Yao Ming on the offensive end, he is tougher than Yao Ming on the defensive end and has stronger physical confrontation.
With the Splash Brothers, coupled with the super high-quality 3D Hayward and Barnes, Bogut is not much worse than Yao Ming on the court, and even better defensively!
Bogut stayed on top for a few minutes, and when the opponent's inside line got tired, Green stepped in again. The Warriors immediately increased their speed to the fastest speed, and the Splash Brothers went crazy for shots, and the Heat immediately collapsed!
After finally waiting for the substitute period, the Heat wanted to take a breather, who would have thought that big trouble would be behind them!
Barbosa, Iguodala, Middleton, Tucker, and Yao Ming, the offensive power of these five people is not bad at all, and they are even harder to defend!
Four guys who can shoot three-pointers, an all-around small forward, and a killer inside, how can the Heat defend against this?
At halftime, the Heat trailed by 23 points!
It's not that the Heat are weak, it's that the Warriors' offense is too strong!
The Heat scored 52 points at halftime, which is a lot, but the Warriors scored more, 75 points!
The third quarter was Warriors time. Curilang found the feeling after taking two shots. He hit consecutive shots from the outside and stopped the Heat with 5 three-pointers!
There is no way, Curry was also forced, he came up with a mission!
Deng Fang made it clear that Curry will take at least 20 three-pointers in this game!
"First guarantee me the number of shots, and you don't have to worry about the rest!"
"I don't want the hit rate, I just want you to throw!"
"Even if you are beaten to death by your opponent, you still have to throw three points!"
"Your three-pointers are more efficient than dunks, why don't you take them?"
"No one can defend your three-pointer, just throw it!"
